make, if necessary, a hurried trip TO
California. solve the intricacies Of some
problem there, return in the same fash

at Chicago, doing some more work there,
and yet not feel the fatigue of the trip.
There will be a great deal of travelling
and a great deal OF hard work. II will
be no sinecure. Whoever takes q place

Horses for Street Cars.

Nothing consumes horse flesh faster
than the American street-car system
and its wonderful growth in the last
twenty years has done more to keep up
the demand for horses and prevent the
market from becoming glutted than
most people imagine. The life of the
street-car horse after he dons the bells
is from two to three years. and nc
horse is more thoroughly WORKOUT than
one which has been turned off the stony
streets to die. There is great move
ment in this country just now toward
running street cars by cable power
and already a number of leading lines
in Chicago, Cincinnati, San Francisco,
Philadelphia and elsewhere, have aban-
doned the use of horses altogether.
Within q year from this time the two
leading lines of Pittsburgh wiz be
operating with cables, and other lines
are already talking of making the same
change. The probabilities are that in
few years there will be ten cable lines
to where one can now be found.
What does this portendP It must
mean. among other things. q great
fall-of one of these days in the demand
for horses for street-car purposes. 1t
car hardly be otherwise. True, the
smaller cities are fast adopting the
horse-car system, and many for while
make up for the diminishing demand
in the great cities. The fact is, some
thing better for the purpose has been
found, and it is bound in the end to
supplant the horse wherever it is prac-
ticable for the substitution to be made
There are those who think the produc-
ton of horses cannot be oYerdone. We
sre by no means of that opinion. The
day will come when cheap horses. for
the reason assigned, ana for no other
reasons, will be drug on the market.
Good horses always should, and prob
ably always will, pay the producer.
But We must not expect impossibilities.

ture and stock-rsising may have its

THE RAILROAD KINGS.
Their Relation to the Reduction in
the Price of Transportation.

Able and popular writers dwell with
great emphasis on the vast service rem
dered by certain men in increasing
production or economizing distribution.
| think, however, that a tendency to
hero-worship may be discerned in their
readiness 10 measure the services of
such men by their success in accumu-
latlDg wealth. One might think, for
example, from some of their statements,
that the reduction which has taken
place within the last twenty years N
the charges for transportation between
the west and the seaboard had been
mainly, if not wholly, due to marvel
Gus capacity for directing railroad
business possessed and exercised by
such men as Jay Gould and the late
Commodore Vanderbilt; whereas the
obvious truth is, that a number of
causes have been operating within the
last quarter of century which must
have led to large cheapening of trans
portation under any ordinarily efficient
management The Homestead Law,
enacted in 1862, placed high premium
on the settlement of the public-land
States and Territories, while thousands
of miles of railroad, built mainly at the
public expense, facilitated access to the
vacant lands, and furnished the settlers
with a means of marketing their pro-
duce. These subsidized roads II the
remote west served as feeders to the
main trunk lines farther east, and, in
connection with the general growth of
population, so increased their business
that it became an easy matter to do
that business at smaller relative cost.
In the meantime, a revolution in the
manufacture of steel enormously les
sened the expense arising from the wear
Of rails, while improvements in the con-
struCtion of locomotives and rolling
stock resulted in further economies.
1t is 20 such causes, rather than to
any phenomenal power of management
on the part of few men, that we owe
the bulk of the reduction which has
taken place in the price of transporta-
tion; and, if we accept the sort of man
agement that has been directed to
freezing out" or squeezing out"
sn all shareholders and small corpora
tions, and to keeping the price of trans
portation as far above its cost las the
traffic would bear, ;" it is not to extra
ordinary management, but mainly to
such causes as those pointed out in the
last paragraph, that the great Wall
Street fortunes identified with railroad
eve their origin. 1t may
be a convenience to certain minds to
invest our Goulds and Vsnderbilts with
the attributes of demi-gods by way of
accounting for phenomena that cannot
be squared with their own
social and economic theoi les; but un-
preiudiced inquirers after truth are
justified in seeking less thaumatur-
gical explanation; and when it lies as
close at hand as in the present instance,
they may be pardoned for giving it the
reference.-Edward T. Peters, in the
FOrUm for November.

President Cleveland has sent ba.

President Cleveland has sent back
to congress without his approval the
dependent.pension bill. Briefly, the
measure provided for a pension to the
soldiers Of any of our wars who are at
present suffering from any mental or
physical disability and incapacitated
thereby from supporting t~henGelyes
by daily labor. The president, in
his message, points out that, under
the bill, men who have served only
thsee months in the army, we're never
III an engagement, and sustained no
injuries as the result Of their service
can draw $12 per month. They are
not required to be without property,
but dependent to a certain degree on
their own exertions. Re says that
the soldiers OF the rebellion have been
better compensated than any other
soldiers sssince mankind first went to
war, and that all really needy and
homeless soldiers have been provided
for at institutions maintained by the
government. The proposed law, he
continues, would put a further
premium on dishonesty and mendac-
IT'S. on account Of the wide range
taken hy it's provisions, and the nnsn.
